Route Notes BC near 2 lakes at foot of South Face C1 biv on rocky terrace 200m from SW Ridge on South Face C2 biv on SW Ridge in snowhole. 11 Nov at 9 am on the SW Ridge at 6700m. Cause: The estimated time to summit: 4-5 hours + 3 hours to climb down to C2 were considered too long as we had not eat eaten much as of day 2 + strong winds (70km/h at 7000m) were forecast for the next day. From that position, it took us 13 hours to reach BC. At that time Pierrick Dentan had not realized that he had frostbite (he only realized that the next morning at BC Camp).
